Miss the show!

You have to listen at 1/2 speed at times as the show moves at a rapid clip — but if want to learn options — this how the pros talk and think — it’s like a master class — host does excellent job with moderating the show.

Since OA is on every Friday afternoon, can you guys talk about the next week catalog on big events?

Don’t know why they don’t allow the video. Kinda worthless without it. Should have it

I subscribe to CNBC Pro and greatly enjoy the many videos that you put up for later viewing. Fast Money, Mad Money, OT etc are all available for later viewing but strangely Options Action is excluded from that helpful approach. Why no video version of Options Action?

I love this show! But its very hard to follow a podcast where they are describing expiry dates and multiple strike prices of calls and puts all in a span of 10 seconds. Either a YouTube channel or a podcast service that allows some screenshots from the show will be nice!!

CNBC keeps adding business themed “reality” shows but I wish they would offer more shows like OA. It’s educational, interesting, and entertaining. Mike, Carter, Melissa and Tony are great. I miss Dan Nathan too. Create more shows like this CNBC or you’ll just lose viewers to YouTube which doesn’t include costly cable or streaming subscriptions.

If you wanna learn options trading, this is THE best program. Once a week fridays 230-3 CNBC. Intelligent, funny and informative.

Any program Melissa hosts/anchors is a must see. I always learn something new and enjoy her shows. Always. Perfect combination of intelligence and wit!

Entertaining. Good trade ideas. A weekly favorite.

Without the video to accompany the audio it’s useless. They’re talking about charting and patterns and unless you can see what they’re talking about there’s no use in subscribing to this podcast

Without video you can't see the charts! So what's the point?

BUT, since trades ARE proposed, OPTIONS ACTION should post Quarterly GAIN/LOSS relating to those trades, taking into account that your viewers are home gamers who will not be able to deal with Friday Prices

Not very useful since they dropped the video podcast. The show centers around charts and graphs and an audio podcast is not worth listening to.

Podcast as audio only does not have as much value. The podcast used to have greater value as the video is helpful in the explanations provided by the analysts (e.g. charts)

Video is a must have for this and other CNBC shows! I am not sure why CNBC would allow these podcasts with audio only as these great shows loose all appeal! And stop manipulating feedback tape by showing earlier reviews first. Those were written before you took away video. One must seriously scroll down before getting to 2013 feedback. I thought something was wrong with my apple app as I was reading all glamorous feedback that suggested that there is video!!!!

I really looked forward to this video podcast - except now its audio only. What happened - o gods of cnbc? Audio-only podcasts are way late too - it’s 2/19 today and the latest podcast is from 2/7. come on guys!

What happened to the Video to Options Action, and Mad Money? The Overview says it's a "Video", but it now seems to be Audio Only. This is worthless as Audio only. Please fix this, or I'll remove this. Very poor decision to pull video. !@#$%

For the novice, this podcast is almost worthless as there is no video, no diagrams!

Used to view this podcast without fail but someone had the bright idea to make it audio only. How does that work? Doesn't make sense. Bring back the video and will subscribe again.

please please please bring back the video!

This is super lame without video. They even took the full episode off their website.

useless without video

This used to be a video podcast. Without the video, it is really tough to follow what they are talking about.

CNBC - let's get with the program and bring back the video podcasts. I want to see Carter's charts, not just hear him describe them.

It really stinks that it is audio only. I used to review video after hours but now I am unable to do so. Bad marketing decision!

They changed this from video and audio to audio alone! They did the same with Mad Money since Oct 2013. We really need the charts and graphics. I'm sure this was a revenue/ money issue, and I think it stinks for loyal fans. Bad form NBC.

This is a really good show. Very educational and entertaining. I wish it was daily. If they do this, I will update and rate a 5.

Holy moly—the review by majesticseven nailed it. Waaaaaaaaay too much going on here. This is not for the MTV crowd, is it?? I'd imagine that the people trying to learn options, or widen their scope, are not the young hipster crowd. This show is too fast and furious for its britches. And mine. And the core audience. SLOW THE HECK DOWN!! But as far as content, I did learn about some new option trades that were getting me to say "hmmmmm….". The expertise is there, but you'd better buckle-up to get through it.

I really like this show, but it can be a bit monotonous from week to week and could be better. One suggestion: the panel can talk about various aspects of the "greeks." That stuff never gets mentioned, yet understanding this is critical to options trading.

Calm down, slow down, this is not a sport show, less screaming and less special effects would make it less cheezy. First and last time I'll watch this.

If I was a CNBC exec, I would order this show to be redesigned from the ground up. The information is great, however, this style of presenting financial information and advice like a panel of loud NFL sports commentators is ridiculous. Everything about the show is nauseating... from the ever swimming camera to the annoying sound effects to thepsychedelic backdrop to the epilepsy-inspiring wipes between scenes (occuring every 4 seconds). I am surprised the show has lasted this long. I realize it is difficult to made something as heady and uninteresting as stock options bold and sexy, but this show's approach is over the top. Its a nice experiment and exhibit in what not to do. A simple production redesign would save the show.... if its not too late.

I love this show. Fast pace and plenty of sound analysis A great help on my journey to understand options. But would you please get a better audio/sound person to do this show justice. One suggestion. Go over each trade twice for us novices.

Excellent show. If you are into options then you can skip all the other stuff, most options books included, and learn from this great show. Melissa Lee knows her stuff and puts a serious effort in making the show very informative. Thanks.

Decent program. Fast money is better though. Options trading in general is very risky for an investor that is not familiar with how they work.

I've studied equity options for years. I've read "Options Markets" by Rubinstein and Cox. And, I never really understood options until I started watching this show. Options Action is a must for anyone seeking to better understand equity options.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for updating this podcast. Melissa Lee is the best and this show needs to come on as often as fast money.

By the time all the commercials are done it only adds up to a 20 minute podcast. It would not hurt to move it up a few timeslots. Why are there no more podcasts on iTunes? Update: well they have moved it up in timeslots. The podcasts are available but you can not see them on the iPhone. You need to get them on the computer. Weird

This was a great show. Was the podcast cancelled?

Keep up the good work!!!

Finally a show about stock options! It's well done! Why have the podcasts stopped?

Have we seen the last of this show on iTunes? Too bad since this is one of the best I've seen!

We learned so much

This is the 5/1/09 show. Where is the 5/8/09 show?

This is a great show, would love to see it air as often as fast money. The strategies and discussions are excellent. They don't dumb it down too much, which is greatly appreciated and would really hurt the show if they did, imho. It would be even better if the traders would give a few more specifics on their trades, when deciding on volume, size of their transaction, and percentage of capital to risk, and why. Also, would be nice if the podcast was posted the same day as the show aired on cnbc - Fast Money has improved on their podcast posting turn time a TON.

Have enjoyed this Rookie show; good mix of fast talk, witty banter and money-making options trades. They're not afraid to slow it down for those new to options while getting into more complex (can you say Iron Condor) ideas as well. Fun watching for the whole family and a spunky host to boot.
